i think it says volumes for him that he hasnt just quit at the end of world cup campaign. he's vital for the transition period for euros when we will develop some new players.

Has served us well, but age is getting the better of him. Has had some great moments this campaign, but some very dodgy moments too. Before he starts becoming a mere shadow of what he was. Time to move on and make way for younger players. Testimonial 100% deserved and a fitting end to his Irish career.

I think that is the stuff of legend.
he has been an unbelievable servant, great heart for the jersey, but not a remarkable player by any means. when i talk legends, im talking brady/keane/keane/mcgrath / giles /given. Its not enough just to play in games, and he wont be remembered in the same light as the afforemenioned. lot of respect for him but like steve staunton i woudlnt call him a legend.
Depends what your criteria for a Legend is. I wouldn't even have him in the same parish let alone sentence ability-wise with brady/keane/keane/mcgrath /giles/given but playing almost 50 consecutive games in a green jersey would make him a legend for me especially when you consider he played with a broken cheek bone in Podgorica. . Do you have to be a brilliant player to be a legend ? I wouldn't have thought so. Remember when Peter Reid couldn't play him at home because of the amount of stick he was getting from the Sunderland fans ? He still came home and gave his very best in an Irish Shirt. I hope he stays on, even if he is not in the team his experience would be vital in the squad.

Great Irish player who can't even get on the Hull team. I think he should go on to break the Caps record, but in all honesty it's time for a new left-back.

Unbelievable servant to Irish football.  I do think we need to look to the future now but theres no better man to have in your squad for younger players to look up to as a role model and also for backup in case hes needed Clap  Super Kevin, YBIG salutes you Thumbs%20Up

I'm a massive Kilbane fan but I do think now is the right time for him to bow out. He's served us well and would hate for him to be tarnished for a poor display or whatever just because he may not be up to it down the line!
